Don't get me wrong I am a fan of Samuel Jackson but this movie was a huge let down for me. My problem was I had high expectations for this movie. The entire movie was terrible. Do not let the 4-Star... Full review

The acting in this movie was top notch, along with the plot. Samuel Jackson played his part so good I began to feel some dislike toward his character. It really exemplifies the sort of prejudice people hold towards mixed couples.... Full review

There's an inherent problem with making a movie of this kind: unless you're a creative genius of your time, these sorts of movies have the potential to turn real generic, REAL fast. Reminiscent of Denzel Washington from Training Day, we see... Full review

and it's a decent movie. There was no sneaking around that big Hollywood hates Republicans. That was made obvious when Able said "he's a Democrat" about his environmentalist husband of an African-American neighbor. The writer stereotyped Republicans as "can't see straight",... Full review

Its sudden spiral into stock thriller is disappointing, mainly....It's when the overblown ending requires his character to become caricature....Jackson sullies a nuanced performance by reverting to the full-on shout mode we've seen him sleepwalk through so many times before..... ... Full Review

it would've been as good.I'd say this is a good movie to watch....although his acting is--as always--great.Patrick and Kerry are very good too....if you don't expect it to be heavy thriller, but still a good story and idea (it's no 'Hide and Seek')..... ... Full Review

A would-be thriller lacking in suspense, "Lakeview Terrace" nonetheless commands attention throughout.
Knowing who is sabotaging the pair sucks the mystery from the film, but LaBute imbues individual scenes with tension and uses visual shorthand to show paradise quickly lost.
